Urban development is the future vision for urban and transportation development to face economic, demographic and environmental challenges that needed. The control of urban planning is one of the main tasks under taken by Governments .But the urban planning process encountered some problems resulting from the weakness of mechanisms and the inability to enter homes every time to know the violations from the inside.

The recommendation in this research is the encourage vertical housing to limit the increase of irregularities and reduce the horizontal expansion, which needs to large areas, causing the need for the extension of service networks in large areas.
